Abstract

Ameloblastoma is a rare odontogenic neoplasm occurring in the jaw that can be observed as several different histologic and radiographic presentations. Since inadequate treatment is associated with high recurrence rate, accurate diagnosis is critical for proper management of ameloblastoma. The preferred treatment is wide local excision and reconstruction. We herein present a patient with solid multicystic ameloblastoma involving the mandible, which was initially misdiagnosed and treated as a periapical cyst, and discuss various radiographic presentations of ameloblastoma.

Abstract

Objectives: To comparatively evaluate the incidence of apical transportation during calcium hydroxide paste removal using two rotary systems on 40° curved simulated root canal blocks. Methods: Two groups (n = 15; Group 1, iRace; Group 2, ProTaper) of simulated root canals (40° curvature) were instrumented until working length was achieved. Stereomicroscopic post-instrumentation images were captured, and the final file was inserted into canal to the working length. Calcium hydroxide paste with iodoform was placed until working length was achieved and removed after 7 days using the master apical file with copious irrigation. Stereomicroscopic images were taken after calcium hydroxide paste removal, with the final file inserted until working length was achieved to assess the incidence of apical transportation. Stereomicroscopic images were obtained and superimposed using Adobe Photoshop 8. Results: Mean angle change after rotary instrumentation and calcium hydroxide paste removal was observed in both groups and was greater in Group 2 than in Group 1. Superimposed images showed greater root canal deviation in Group 2 than in Group 1. Conclusion: Both file systems showed apical transportation upon calcium hydroxide paste removal from simulated-curved root canals. A greater angle deviation and apical transportation was recorded with ProTaper.

Abstract

While collecting the right data and conducting the appropriate analyses is critical to scientific success, writing up your findings and steering them through submission, peer review and into print is at least as important. If you don’t publish your work, your scientific career is likely to be brief and unrewarding. Thus, technical writing is a key skill for any researcher. In this paper, the author goes through the hard lessons learned from nearly three decades of experience as a scientist, reviewer and (latterly) editor. He covers such topics as precision in technical writing, common errors in presenting and describing data, writing a Discussion section, and dealing with reviewers and editors.

Abstract

Background: Black tea is the most commonly consumed tea in Indonesia. Black tea has antibacterial effects and it can inhibit the attachment of Streptococcus mutans to enamel. Objective: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of 2% black tea infusion and 0.2% fluoride solution mouth rinses in increasing pH and salivary fluoride levels for one month in children aged 7-8 years. Methods: This study was experimental study with double-blind randomized controlled trial design. The subjects were 28 first grade students of a state elementary school derived through a simple random sampling technique. The salivary pH was measured with the help of a digital pH meter and the salivary fluoride level was measured using UV-VIS TECAN Infinite M200 Pro® Spectrophotometer. Results: The results of the Independent T-Test showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the group of students who washed their mouths using 2% black tea infusion and the students who used 0.2% fluoride solution mouthwash (p<0.05). Conclusions: Mouth rinsing with 2% black tea infusion had equal effectiveness with 0.2% fluoride solution in increasing pH and salivary fluoride levels.

Abstract

Jakarta is the capital city of Indonesia which is surrounded by its satellite cities Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, Bekasi. Nonetheless, scarce information are available of the current oral health of children. Objective: The study aims to describe caries and gingival status among 5 and 12 years old children in Jabodetabek. Jabodetabek is an abbreviation of Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, and the satellite cities in its surrounding (Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, Bekasi). Methods: The survey was done in 2014 and had already got ethical approval. Design of this study was crosssectional. Subjects were 5-year-old and 12-year-old Indonesian children living in Jabodetabek, selected using cluster sampling method. One trained examiner performed the clinical examination. Caries experience was measured using DMFT index, severity of decayed teeth was assessed using PUFA index, gingival status and oral hygiene were measured by Loe and Sillness modified index. Results: A total of 390 5-year-old and 458 12-year-old children with balanced proportion between girls and boys participated in the survey. The prevalence of caries experience among the 5-yearold children and 12-year-old children were 90% and 84% respectively. The mean DMFT and DT scores among the 5-year-old children and 12-year-old children were 7.5±5.5 and 6.8±4.8; 3.2±2.2 and 2.9±2.1 respectively. Pulp involvement were apparent in 45% and 23% of caries in 5 and 12-year-old children respectively. Most children, 45% 5-year-old children and 92% 12-year-old children had substantial amount of plaque. Moreover, 68% 12-year-old children had gingivitis. Conclusion: Dental caries were prevalent among 5 and 12-year-old Indonesian children in Jakarta and its satellite cities. The oral health condition of most of the children were poor

Abstract

Objectives: To compare the success of the newly developed glass carbomer-based fissure sealant to resin, glass ionomer, and giomer-based fissure sealants in permanent molar teeth according to the modified United States Public Health Service criteria. Methods: Glass carbomer-based fissure sealant GCP Glass Carbomer, glass ionomer-based fissure sealant Fuji Triage, giomer-based fissure sealant Beauti Sealant, and resin-based fissure sealant prevent seal were applied using invasive/non-invasive methods to extracted human molars. Specimens were randomly assigned into three groups based on the simulated aging procedure time. Results: According to the retention score results of Group 1, the invasive giomer material yielded the highest score in the Group. The retention score results of Group 2 showed that the invasive resin subgroup had the highest alpha-score. Furthermore, we found that the invasive GIS, non-invasive giomer, and invasive giomer subgroups had similar alpha-scores within Group 2. The glass carbomer and glass ionomer cement subgroups were unsuccessful in maintaining their edge integrity, edge coloring, surface roughness, and surface coloring. Conclusion: Thus, glass ionomer cements (GIC) and glass carbomer-based materials can be useful alternatives to residual monomers contained in resin-based fissure sealants. For patients who can be controlled regularly, glass carbomer fissure sealant can be applied using invasive methods.

Abstract

Orthodontics plays a role in an individual’s appearance which can affect the perception of others that can vary greatly depending on their educational and social economic background. Objective: To determine if there were differences between dentist’s and non-dentist’s perceptions on facial attractiveness with normal occlusion and various types of malocclusions in Indonesian population. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted on 80 dentists and 80 non-dentists aged 23-49 years old. The perceptions differences between groups were assessed using visual analogue scale on ten photographs for each gender that have been digitally manipulated. Mann Whitney test was used to analyze the differences. Results: Normal occlusion is the most attractive condition for dentists and non-dentists. There are significant differences between dentist’s and non-dentist’s perceptions of facial attractiveness showing normal occlusion, increased overjet, increased overbite, reduced overjet, reduced overbite, mild crowding, open bite, and reversed overjet malocclusions (p < 0.05). Whilst both groups agreed (p > 0.05) that severe and moderate crowding were the least attractive malocclusion. Conclusion: Regarding the facial attractiveness, dentist’s and non-dentist’s perceptions are significantly different for most malocclusion types. However, there is an agreement that severe and moderate crowding are the most disturbing malocclusion that have a considerable effect on facial attractiveness.

Abstract

Tooth loss is considered a major end-point sequela of preventable oral diseases. In Malaysia, tooth mortality is a common oral health problem. Objective: To assess the impact of tooth loss, preferences for tooth replacement, and the relationship between impact of tooth loss and number of missing teeth. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional survey involved 244 patients attending a primary health center and dental clinic at a public university. The respondents completed self-administered questionnaires on personal background, tooth replacement status, impact of tooth loss using a 12-item modified Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI), and preferences for tooth replacement. A dental examination was performed to determine the number of missing teeth. Results: The mean age of the respondents was 56.2 years (standard deviation [SD], 8.1 years). The mean number of missing teeth was 8.3; 62.7% of patients had at least 20 natural teeth. The majority were not wearing a dental prosthesis. The mean GOHAI score was 16.3. Of the patients, 66.0% experienced some food biting difficulty, 59.4% worried about oral health, and 57.8% experienced eating discomfort. Dental implants were the most preferred replacement option (38.9%). The GOHAI scores were not related to the number of missing teeth. Conclusion: Tooth loss and use of dental prostheses had some impact on quality of life, although the impact was not high.

Abstract

Objectives: The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of various apical instrumentation sizes and tapers on the degree of debridement of the apical third of curved root canals. Methods: We used 60 extracted human mandibular first molars with mesial root curvatures of 20° to 30°. In all teeth, access cavity preparation was performed, followed by coronal flaring with Gates Glidden drills #1–4 (Dentsply Maillefer). Specimen teeth were subsequently randomly divided into five groups (n = 12). Each group was enlarged to a particular apical size and taper as follows: no apical preparation done (group I, Control group); 25/.04 and 25/.06 (Group II); 30/.04 and 30/.06 (group III); 35/.04 (group IV); 40/.04 (group V). Specimens were rinsed with 17% EDTA and 3% NaOCl solutions. We used a scanning electron microscope to evaluate specimens’ degree of debridement. Retrieved data were analyzed using Kruskal–Wallis and Mann–Whitney U-tests (p < 0.05). Results: Acceptable debridement was observed in groups III, IV, and V. Additionally, debridement was significantly better in Groups IV and V than in group II. Conclusion: Apical preparation with <30/.04 size results in an unacceptable degree of debridement of the apical third.

Abstract

Background: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), a gram negative micro-aerophilic bacterium is known to cause gastritis, peptic ulcer disease and gastric adenocarcinoma. Extra-gastric reservoir of this bacteria can cause recurrent infection in treated subjects. Oral cavity is considered to be an important extragastric reservoir due to the favourable milieu in sub gingival areas and the symbiotic association H. pylori shares with Candida, a common commensal in the oral cavity. Objective: To evaluate the presence of H. pylori and Candida in the saliva of patients with chronic gastritis. Methods: The study compromised of subjects with H. pylori positive gastritis (Group I: n=30), subjects with H. pylori negative gastritis (Group II: n=30) and normal controls without gastritis (Group III: n=10). Unstimulated saliva samples (Whole mouth fluid) was collected and subjected to real time PCR analysis for the detection of Urease A gene of H. pylori. Sabouraud’s Dextrose Agar was used to detect the presence of Candida species. Results: Seven subjects (23.3%) from Group I and four subjects (13.3%) from Group II were positive for oral Helicobacter pylori. Fourteen subjects (46.6%) from Group I and Eight subjects (26.6%) from Group II showed the presence of oral Candida. Four subjects (13.3%) from Group I had both oral Helicobacter pylori and oral Candida. Conclusion: H. pylori and Candida in the oral cavity could potentially influence H. pylori recolonization of the gastric mucosa leading to recurrent gastritis.
